Civil War in France??

Post by toad »

I've been trying to find the site were I read it but while the source was in English the opinion expressed was by a French writer so I perhaps discounted it to0 quickly and move on. My google fu is weak. Apparently there is a French writer who has a good track record of predicting the problems France has with Muslim immigration. In his latest book he predicts a French Civil war not so much with the Muslim population but between the French population and the French governing elite because of their refusal to face up to the Muslim population. He thinks the population will coalesce with extremists (i.e. Le Pen) and take them down. I have trouble wrapping my head around that but given the difference between the attitudes in Paris and the rest of France there may be something to it????

Michel Houellebecq?
Here's a short summary of his latest book.
Here's the Wall Street Journal writing about it.

Ayup, that's the author and stream I've been hearing about. Recently the French government has been cracking down, but to me it still seems like the old saw about spotting a snake, then forming a committee to figure out what to do about the snake, rather than reaching for the garden hoe and killing the snake.
Of course its not that much different here in the states :evil:

I keep saying this, and no one seems to understand... European white folk, "middle class" types, are capable of straight up eradicating unwanted populations. Last folks that got "The business" were gyppos in Italy. A gypsy camp was burned and 500 folks killed. Zero investigation by cops. (mainly because the cops were in on it)

What I am saying is: It will be a BAD time to be brown in Europe for the foreseeable future.

Egads, I agree with Yogi...

In a fashion, the world could use a revitalized Europe - demographically, unless something is done, both the EU's and Japan's contributions to the GDP will collapse, from sheer depopulation.

OTH, Europe, is, at its core, tribal.

I know educated, intelligent, Europeans, who are adamantly against immigration, by anyone, because European countries are "true nations," and it isn't possible to immigrate into one, and become a member of that nation... (Aside from Russia - Russians are, proudly, xenophobic, but there's no such thing as "looking Russian.")

And, they're right. One cannot be from a culture which speaks proudly of "fine, round English heads" (in propaganda, circa WWII England), and every, really, accept someone without such "fine, round heads."

Now, maybe Europe could change, and become some Socialist form of the US... But, I don't think they have it in them.

Nor am I entirely convinced they can survive without some form of paternalistic state.

One one hand, a revitalized EU, may mean more constant wars - on the other, perhaps it would act as a giant %&% magnet, drawing all our Commies back to their idealogical spawning ground...

Maybe at least they would quit telling us how great everything European is for a while.

Wouldn't THAT be nice, for a change!!!

I agree completely with Yogi for once. I'm struggling through a book called War of the World and it pretty much says Europe is tribal, and forced division or assimilation causes most of the wars. Matter of fact, that's pretty much the author's thesis for the problems of the whole world.

I really got no problems with the Euros forceablly loading up non-assimilating Mussies and shipping them back from whence they came. Or shooting them if they refuse.

But what about the Africans who are at least nominally Christian(usually Roman-Catholic or Eastern Orthodox), and who are political refugees? If they have assimilated and "Euro-ized", will they be targeted too?
